Potential raid in my local area

[SUPERSPRINT]

This popped up on my local sale or swap,

Looks interesting, we will see if I got in 1st.

I'll update if anything comes of it.

 

[BristolMartin]

Count me in!

Jet Rocket??!!! It is very rare to see a game on this forum that is older than me!

 

[nurtuo]

Great machine.
What a bit of history.

!

I saw/played some "pre-CRT" games in the mid 70s. Not that one.
That needs to go to a museum...

Back in the 60s and early 70s, some RAF "simulators" ran off the same principle of a rolling map.

 

[Steveylou]

Jet Rocket?!? Wow!

That would be quite a find. Fingers crossed this comes off for you.

 

[Bensonrad]

I'd get on it super fast, if the post was somewhere public, I imagine many will be already racing down there.

Hope it all works out, good find.Bensonrad2017-08-30 11:47:56

 

[stevebm1]

all prices vary!,hopefully not a seller who thinks they are worth thousands each

 

[SUPERSPRINT]

No response from the seller yet, no one seems to be able to get any info. Hopefully I'll get to have a look at the machines and see what's there. By the look of it, that sega jet rocket is massive. Seems the door is in the side of the cab.

 

[stevebm1]

if there are lot's of comments under the listing on facebook,then it's usually a bad sign,but you never know if you were one of the first you may be lucky

 

[Fuzzy]

Jet Rocket looks awesome! I think I played this as a kid.

Hope you manage to get in there before anyone else.

 

[Pinballgeek]

Interested in knowing what pinball machines are available

 

[SUPERSPRINT]

Going to need a little help here please. I'm gonna post up some pics of what is there. They are in an house someone has just bought, here's the catch, it's in France. No big deal really, but as far a making an offer some help would be appreciated. There is a lot of stuff there she says there is boxes of pcbs also. Late 70s early 80s stuff, all of it, apart from the thunderblade.

Here goes....

That demolition derby right next to a pile of rubble!

 

[stevebm1]

wow,some old stuff there,and some of it looks ok as well

 

[JAG555]

Wow! Some great bits, but sorry no idea on value. Most look like they will need significant work.

If it was me, I would just try and get the lot for a good price. Even in parts there must be some value there.

 

[penrhos]

A lot of daylight visible in some of those pictures - I would be worried about how dry they have been in storage.....

reflections in glass show trees/sky = possible rained on lots.

 

[SUPERSPRINT]

It's a daunting task to bring all that lot back here. If they were all Atari classics I wouldn't hesitate but some of it is junk unfortunately.

 

[Bensonrad]

crazy stuff there, they seem to be willing to bring it to the UK if worth their while too.

 

[Mr20to5]

Again, no help on value, but WOW!! What a great selection of old, unusual cabs. For me it's the pins that stand out, I love that era of pins. It's going to be hard to value anything from those photos alone. As already said, just got to try and secure for a good price, based on the fact that nothing could work or have much inside it, cross your fingers and go from there. You are bound to find something that makes it all worthwhile if the price is right?
